lic free schoo:s for the coining year

Look on the bright side. No

Cabbage and onions this fall and
tomatoes in the spring. That's the
program of the Yoakum truckers
just now.
The question as to the ugliest

—Victoria Advocate.
Cabbage, onions, alfalfa, toma-
toes. Try some of these next sea-
son. Cotton is all right, but South
Texas soil will produce other crops
betides __________
A« The Times predicted, Judge
Parker’s speech of acceptance was
a ringing declaration of democratic
doctrine. It was just such a speech
as was expected of him.
Some men court notoriety. Sel-
dom however, can they be termed
great men Modesty is one of the
crowning adornments of truly great
men —Houston News.
Roosevelt says he is not going
to do any speech making during
the present campaign. Perhaps
Judge Parker speech has made an
impression even upon Teddy.
When yon fret and fame at the
petty ills of life, remember that
“the wheels which go round with-
out creaking last- the longest.”—
Sabinal Sentinel.
Just now it seems that pub-
lic sentiment in Yoakum relative
to what is right and proper in a
good many instances is weak and
wobblyattha
Meanwhile, says Harper’s
Weekly, it is an interesting fact
that Judge Parker still occupies
the center of the stage in popular
interest.—San Antonio Express.
Yesterday’s Express says the
contract has beeu signed up at St.
Louis for the construction of the
Lott road from Sinton to Columbia,
some hundred and fifty odd miles,
Johnston Brothers, who built the
Brownsville line, to do the work.
The Lott road and Johnson Broth-
ers are very solid people and there
is no doubt when construction be-
gins it will be vigorously pushed
and that everybody who gets work
on it will be promptly and fully
paid. There is going to be a great
deal of labor required on this line
and no doubt that people in this
section with good teams and short
crops may be able to swell out their
cash balances very handsomely by
going down and securing work on
this line as it bnilds around the
coast. The road will do all this
section good by attracting immi-
gration to south Texas and invit-
ing with the big Frisco immigra-
tion department a great many peo
pie who will settle throughout this
section. The overflow from this
movement will do all this section
good. It will do further good no
doubt by being the fore runner of
other railroad construction in this
section.—Cnero Star.
Groceries for Store'Room.!
To keep in readiners for
emergencies its well to have
some grocery supplies easily
turned into a hasty meal for
unexpected gue.st.
Ashland ham, bologna
sausage, soup stocks, which
needs but beating, cheese,
sardines, canned meats,
canned fruit and vegetables
all that sort, we can fill up
a kitchen closet or pantry
for you so that you will
never be embara«sed to en-
tertain friends.

the receipts wore small. Those
who missed it were heavy losers as
all who were present will testify.

The depredation of the boll wee-
vil seems to be much more severe
in some localities than in others.
Some sections where the farmers
made a good crop last year are
nearly barren of bolls this season
and it will take many acres to
to make a bale, while in others a
fairly good yield is pretty certain.
Taken all in all, it is doubtful if
the yield will show up as good as
last year. A good price is all that
will save many of the farmers —
that and the fact that they engag-
ed quite extensively in trucking
during the spring. The weevils
are making converts of the truck-
ing industry at a rapid rate, and
the prediction is made that it wi|l
not be many years ere cotton will
be a back number throughout this
section.—Weimar Mercury.
COL. POLK’S PROPOSED ROAD.
STREET FAIR DATES
Noah made a mischievous mis-
take when he took a pair of boll
weevil in out of the wet on the oc-
casion of that great flood the good
book tells ns about.
Yoakum’s annual street fair and
Red Mens’ Carnival is booked tc
come off October 18, 19, 20 and 21,
and as usual will be the biggest
thing of the kind in Sonth Texas
The slender girl walked- up the

—Exchange.
To PAT while noting the arrivals
and departures on the 12:58 Bap
our attention was attracted by a
curious looking car with several
oil tanks attached to a west bound
freight train. (Jpon inquiry we
learned it was used for burning the
grass from the track of the railroad
company and that same was on its
initial trip, having left Yoakum at
seven o’clock this morning arriv-
ing here at one p. m., burning all
!u ---* -- w-
aie informed that it was invented
by one ot the Sap officials. The
cashier at the Sap dept says a lady
living at the edge of town who 9aw
the train burning grass, rang him

there burning np.—Cuero Record.
The editor of The Times is an ar-
dent admirer of base ball as a clean
and elevating sport, but desires
to put himself on record as being
strictly opposed to the betting
feature which some are inclined to
make a conspicuous feature of the
game. Cut cut the public betting
and muzzle the loud-mouthed bully
and there is nothing at all the
matter with base ball.
The wise farmer will plant a few
acres in alfalfa this fall.
JUDGE PARKER 3 SPEECH.
With cabbage and onions and
potatoes and tomatoes and corn
and alfalfa and sorghnm and with
cotton as a money crop in the fall,
the farmers of Booth Texas onght
to be independent, prosperous and
happy. •
A four inch pipe line for the
conveying ot petroleum from the
Big Hill oil field to the loading
racks near Matagorda, is now being
constructed. This would indicate
that Rig Hill ip a paying oil prop-
psiton —Wharton Eagle.
A recent dispatch from Austin
says: Duval West, of San Anto-
nio, attorney for the St Louis,
Brownsville and Mexico, is here
conferringjwith the railroad com-
mission as to proposed bond issue.
It is understood that the road will
ask for $4,000,000 bonds.
The Rockefellers have been
withdrawn from the M. K. & T.
and its control has passed to En-
glish and Hollanders. We hope
our European friends will be able
to see a good thing in doing some
lively building in South Texas.—
Cnero Star.
There is a strong suspicion
general that the Guatemalan ant
has tackled a tough proposition.—
Victoria Advocate.
The Guatemalan ant, if it thinks
anything at all, no doubt thinks
what fools these cottton pest ex-
perts be.
Judge Parker did not equivocate
upon the-tariff; bp delared boldly
for a serious effort at reduction.
He did hot squint at the trusts,
he announced his confidence in the
sufficiency of the common law and
the statutes to restrain monopoly
and then declared the fault to lie,
not in the lack of remedies, but in
the failure of the Republican party
to apply them. There can be no
doubt that if be is elected, he will
exhaust the resources of his office
to bring the trusts to bopk.
Re approached the "subject ot
lawlessness with the papap palm
courage, denounced alike the dyna-
miter and deporter (referring to
the Colorado trouble as a sign of
the times) and declared for that
due process of law which is the
guarantee of the Constitution.
In the same spirit he pleaded
against militarism, conquest and
international meddling, and when
he concluded with the declaration
that if elected, he would not be a
candidate for renomination, his
hearers knew, and the country will
believe, that here is the man who
means to administer his office
without fear or favor, or hope of
reward.—Clarence Onsley.
Private information received
here from Austin Monday wa9 to
the effect that the proposed rail-
way, whioh has been in contepi*
plation for some time ‘aud, in
which Col. L- J. Polk is the cen-
tral figure, was very uearly an as-
sured fact. It was stated that
Col. Polk and G. A. Garvey, a
railroad contractor from St.
Louis, had been in consultation
with
during the day and the proposed
road was the principal topic uDder
discussion.
ft was intimated that the San
Antonio and Gulf would form a
link jo tfie line wbjch Qoi, Polk
has in contemplation and that the
new construction of the road
would begin from Stockdale, the
present terminus of the ban An-
tonio and Gulf. From the latter
point the line would pass out of
Wilson county into Gonzales
county, touching in all probabil-
ity, the towue of Gonzales, and
Waelder; thence into Fayette
October 18th, 19th, 20th and 21st.
The Times is advised that the
dates for Yoakum’s Coding Street
Pair and Red Men’s Carpival are
October 19,20 and fil, it having
beep decided to hold the fair be-
tween the dates of the Dallas and
San Antonio fairs instead of after
the San Antonio fair as has been
the custom heretofore. Mr. Wm.

lodge of Red Men informs us that

tion of a plaG to develop some

A REMARKABLE YIELD-
Mf. Si Spears, who resides 3$
miles east of Yoakum on Mr. H
H. Dyer’s place, is the champion
tomato grower of this section.
Last Spring he plauted an acre of
sandy land in tomatoes of the New
Stone variety and the records of
the canning factory show that he
sold to the plant 300 bushels of
tomatoes for which he received 27
cents a bushel—or the handsome
total of $81.00.

Mr Spears sold tomatoes at pri-
vate residences and received from
bis crop not less than $100, Can
anyone beat the record made by
Mr. Spears as a tomato grower?

ALFALFA
As a remedy for pear blight, «p
prevalent throughout this -section
of Texas, a Harris county man rec
om mends that the bark be skinned
off the trees. He claims tbe bark
will come back again next season,
tbe blight will thus be eradicated,
and that the fruit thereafter will
be very fine. A^ tfie blight will
kill the tree anyway unless heroic
measures are pursued, it might be
worth while to give the Harris
county man’s remedy a trial.—
Weimar Mercury.
That’s like chopping a cigarette
sucker’s head off to cure him of
the cigarette sucking habit. Why
not cut the pear tree down and be
done with it.
Our venerable friend, J. H.
Schwab, of Hochheim, was in town
Saturday shaking hands with his
friends and the editor had a pleas-
ant chat with him. Mr. Schwab
believes in diversification and has
been experimenting with alfalfa as
a hog fattening crop. He planted
fonracres in alfalfa fast October and
has kept fifty head of hogs in good
condition on it without corn dnring
the present summer He says that
alfalfa if planted in the fall and
giyen proper attpptipn until it gpfc
weff footed dpes wpU ip this part
of the State* He if so well pleased
with tbe success thus far attained
in its cultivation that he is going
to plant twelve aores more of it
this fall.
